For the 15-foot snowman, there’s only room for one woman in his life.

This has resulted in weather remaining the same for more prolonged periods.

MEANWHILE: Climate change may be the world’s “most fearsome” weapon of mass destruction and urgent action is needed to combat it, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday, comparing those who deny its existence or question its causes to people who insist the Earth is flat.
“The science is unequivocal, and those who refuse to believe it are simply burying their heads in the sand,” Kerry said. “We don’t have time for a meeting anywhere of the Flat Earth Society,”

Another day, another winter storm for most parts of Newfoundland and Labrador on Sunday, as Environment Canada issued weather warnings for most parts of the province.
PLUS:
Officials say it is so warm at the Sochi Olympics, that the snow on the ski runs keeps MELTING!

WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN FOLKS?
If the data are right, they suggest that climate change in the Arctic is coming home to roost in a big and expensive way.

New research suggests that the main system that
helps determine the weather over Northern Europe and North America may
be changing.
The study shows that the so-called jet stream has increasingly taken a longer, meandering path.
The work was presented at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Chicago.
The observation could be as a result of the recent warming of the
Arctic. Temperatures there have been rising two to three times faster
than the rest of the globe.
According to Prof Jennifer Francis of Rutgers University in New
Jersey: “This does seem to suggest that weather patterns are changing
and people are noticing that the weather in their area is not what it
used to be.”http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-26023166#

MEANWHILE: Climate change may be the world’s “most fearsome” weapon of mass destruction and urgent action is needed to combat it, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday, comparing those who deny its existence or question its causes to people who insist the Earth is flat.
In a speech to Indonesian
students, civic leaders and government officials in Jakarta, Kerry laid
into climate change deniers, accusing them of using shoddy science and
scientists to delay measures needed to reduce emissions of greenhouse
gases at the risk of imperiling the planet. He also went after those
continue to dispute who is responsible for such emissions, arguing that
everyone and every country must take responsibility and act immediately.
“We
simply don’t have time to let a few loud interest groups hijack the
climate conversation,” he said, referring to what he called “big
companies” that “don’t want to change and spend a lot of money” to act
to reduce the risks.
“We should not allow a tiny minority of shoddy scientists and science
and extreme ideologues to compete with scientific facts,” Kerry told
the audience gathered at a U.S. Embassy-run American Center in a Jakarta
shopping mall. “Nor should we allow any room for those who think that
the costs associated with doing the right thing outweigh the benefits.”“The science is unequivocal, and those who refuse to believe it are simply burying their heads in the sand,” Kerry said. “We don’t have time for a meeting anywhere of the Flat Earth Society,”
AND ON TOP OF THAT: The second heavy snowfall in a week to
hit Japan killed up to a dozen people and injured hundreds over the
weekend, while paralyzing traffic and causing power outages. In
Yamanashi, in central Japan, a record 114 centimetres of snow fell.
About 27 centimetres of snow was enough to paralyze Tokyo, which usually
sees only a few light dustings each winter.
The Japan Meteorological Agency said Sunday that the low pressure
system was travelling north, dumping more snow after passing the Tokyo
region. Media reports said as many as 12 people died and 1,500 were
injured nationwide since Friday in snow-related accidents.
AND:Another day, another winter storm for most parts of Newfoundland and Labrador on Sunday, as Environment Canada issued weather warnings for most parts of the province.

Scientists
call it Santa’s revenge. It’s the theory that persistent weather
patterns at the mid-latitudes – like this winter’s tediously
long-lasting polar vortex or California’s severe drought – are a direct
consequence of climate change heating up the Arctic. New evidence
suggests the link is real, even as experts continue to argue over how
much it is influencing the weather on a day to day basis. The effect has
implications for severe weather predictions, food security and water
use across the northern hemisphere.

Bill Nye, the science guy, is going to take on another
leading proponent of NON-SCIENCE, Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn, (No
relation to London’s Blackburn’s) in a “not-really-a-debate” on today’s
“Meet the Press!”
We here at the Perspective Research Department will watch it for her
views on the age of the earth, evolution, faith healing, gay rights,
heaven and hell, and of course …………….., to see how many spaces on our
“climate denial” bingo card we can fill!

Ms. Page said she felt “kind of left out” when all sorts of
other artistic types were proclaiming and celebrating their sexuality,
and she just wanted to “fit in with the group!”
She did, however, promise to try and turn gay, so as not to disappoint her fans!
We here at Perspective will keep you informed!
